Genesis (Hyundai Motor Group KRX: 005380 KS) today announced that current U.S. EV owners* who purchased their vehicle on or before 31 January 2025 will begin receiving emails inviting them to redeem their complimentary North American Charging Standard (NACS) adapters starting the week of 7 April. This Genesis authorized adapter gives Combined Charging System (CCS1) port GV60, Electrified GV70 and Electrified G80 owners access to an additional 20,000 NACS DC fast chargers in the U.S. at the Tesla Supercharger Network.
“At Genesis, we pride ourselves on providing customers with the best possible ownership experience,” said Tedros Mengiste, chief operating officer, Genesis Motor North America. “By offering complimentary NACS adapters, we will make charging even more convenient for our current EV owners. This reinforces our commitment to treating every customer as our ‘son-nim,’ or honored guest.”
How to Receive a Fast-Charging Adapter
- Be the current owner of an eligible Genesis EV.
- Have an active MyGenesis.com owner’s account and have opted into receiving emails.
- Eligible, contactable owners will receive an email from Genesis to verify their information (shipping address, vehicle model, and vehicle model year) are correct.
- Owners must review and confirm the adapter offer and adapter usage terms and conditions
- If the owner agrees to the terms and conditions and if the shipping address and vehicle details are correct then the owner can click ‘Yes, the above information is correct’ and an adapter will be shipped to that address.
- If the shipping address and vehicle details are not correct, owners can select ‘No, the above information is incorrect’ and will be directed to MyGenesis to update the owner’s shipping address. If an owner updates their address, it may take up to a week to receive a new redemption email.
- Eligible owners will receive a confirmation email and a subsequent email containing a tracking number once the adapter has shipped.
Starting with the 2026 model year, all Genesis EVs in the United States will come standard with a native NACS port, eliminating the need for an adapter to access Tesla Superchargers. These NACS-native models do not need, and do not qualify for a complimentary NACS adapter.
